 mannp ⚡️ | Hi all. I am trying to add a /storage ssd to my existing disko system and have done a dry run and edited the output script to just format and mount the additional ssd only. This works fine, but when I add the same config to the full system, it won't boot due to the additional storage drive 😕 I have fileSystems."/storage".neededForBoot = false; but it still won't boot.....any possible reasons why, or things to check? thanks | 12:19:22 |
| mannp ⚡️ | I tried previously and fried my main drive and installed it all from scratch...that boots and works with the additional storage file fine, with the same config.... | 12:20:24 |

 Mic92 | mannp ⚡️: are you missing block device drivers in your hardware-configuration.nix? | 13:42:43 |

| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | what do you mean by "more accurate algorithm", what is currently inaccurate about it? | 15:40:39 |
| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | The PR works well, and functions correctly, it doesn't have any bugs that I'm aware of that cause invalid outputs (disk images that don't work) | 15:41:04 |
| Mic92 | Have you looked at the disk calculation that make-disk-image does? | 15:41:41 |
| Mic92 | It's way more than just using the closure size. | 15:41:52 |
| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | make-disk-image doesn't do calculation? It just asks you for an imageSize right now, doesn't it? | 15:42:16 |
| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | or do you mean in my PR? | 15:42:48 |
| Mic92 | I mean the implementation in nixpkgs | 15:43:25 |
| Mic92 | It's ext4 only afaik | 15:43:31 |
| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | what does that have to do with disko? | 15:43:33 |
| Mic92 | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/636c5a8db5eb31a9ce04d0e75779ab684b0f8ae3/nixos/lib/make-disk-image.nix#L453 | 15:43:57 |
| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | ah okay so make-disk-image from nixpkgs has a complex thing, and my thing is too simple | 15:44:50 |
| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | and just using the path-info size is wrong in some way? | 15:45:01 |
| Mic92 | It's just the raw content and doesn't take into account that filesystem need more data structures for inodes and stuff. | 15:45:31 |
| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | I don't actually understand in what way it is wrong to just use the path-info -Sh output though, because it worked in my cases | 15:45:41 |
| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | In reply to @joerg:thalheim.io
It's just the raw content and doesn't take into account that filesystem need more data structures for inodes and stuff. Oh right, so for that I just hardcode a little bit more in, since I was unable to figure that out | 15:45:58 |
| matthewcroughan @ 39c3 (DECT 94667 or 97340 or 67192) | I don't think that's a bad approach, to just +10M it | 15:46:07 |
